Single‐ and few‐layer MoS 2 nanoflowers are first discovered to have a piezo‐catalyst effect, exhibiting an ultra‐high degradation activity in the dark by introducing external mechanical strains. The degradation ratio of the Rhodamine‐B dye solution reaches 93% within 60 s under ultrasonic‐wave assistance in the dark.
